ROH DVD REVIEW - UP FOR GRABS - 6.6.08

This event features a Tag Tournament to crown new ROH Tag Team Champions, due to The Briscoes vacating their belts because of an injury to Mark Briscoe.

Bracket A:

Chris Hero and Adam Pearce w/Sweet N Sour Inc defeated Jigsaw and Ruckus.  Ruckus went for a kick, Hero blocked it and hit him with a Roaring Elbow, which advances SNS Inc to the Sem-finals.  Sweet N Sour Inc made Bobby Dempsey spend the match under the ring.  At one point, the ref was distracted an Jigsaw rolled him up and have him pinned for over 5 seconds but when the ref realized it, Pearce kicked out at 2.  Once again, the announcers mention that we are seeing a different Chris Hero, not more showboating, he is in ROH to win Championships.  It was an OK opener, I wish The Vulture Squad would’ve won because I like them better as a team.  There was not as much action as you’d except, it was more of a Peace/Hero style match.  After the match Eddie Kingston comes down to check on Ruckus, Jigsaw pushed him off of him, and Kingston goes after Jigsaw.  They were face to face talking mad shit finally, Jigsaw laps Kingston.  They brawled until Ruckus came to and broke them up.  Kingston tells Jigsaw, tomorrow night in Philly you are dead and leaves the ring.
